Blame Comcast

By adamg on Fri, 04/20/2007 - 8:53am

Last night, one of the Wicked Good Conference's more loyal users e-mailed me that he couldn't get through to the site - all he got was a blank screen. Hmm. I tried the site in both Firefox and IE, no problems. Looks like it was Comcast's fault - seems something screwed up at their end that prevented their customers from connecting to sites hosted at pair.com, such as the Wicked Good Conference and Universal Hub:

... Please be assured that we will use this event as an opportunity to learn, and the information we gather will be applied towards making our network even more reliable. ...

Now I know why I couldn't get to my websites last night!

One wonders why Comcast can't be arsed to tell people when things like this happened. Well, okay, so there really isn't any wonder -- Comcast sucks -- but it sure would be nice.

I couldn't get to my.yahoo.com, mail.suma.com (my email server), cisco.com, and many others. I could get to my own blog site www.myunfocusedlife.com though.
